Sherman Alexie And Junior's Coping Methods

Guy Montag was fireman and his job was to destroy books. That’s why he states this, “It was a pleasure to burn” (Bradbury 3). This quote explains that he likes burning books; and he has been burning books for 20 years, and his Dad and Grandpa were also fireman. So it’s tradition to be a fireman. However Guy’s attitude changes when a woman burns herself to death because she loved her books.

Aboriginal identity, mental health and suicide rates were outlined throughout this analysis along with the disgusting lack of government aid. As stated above, the aboriginals from the Kattawapiskak River have a strong sense of identity. The persons on these reserves are proud of their traditions and practice resilience in their faith and values, however, the physical and emotional pain these people are put through will soon break their spirits. They can only ask for help from the government so many times before it will be too

The grey eyes stare through the canvas, judging passers with a scowl. While George Washington was undoubtedly a great man, admired widely in his own time and ever after for intelligence, bravery, and kindness, it would be hard to tell from his portraits. This is because Washington was a lifelong victim of oral health issues that left him with only one of his original teeth intact when he took office and caused discomfort and embarrassment that kept him from speaking in public. The same consequences apply to any adult today who needs to be able to look approachable and speak well to do their job. But poor dental health can also take a much more personal toll.

Typically, a research paper should be at a 5th grade reading level but, I often found myself lost in the paragraphs and unable to understand how the data was measured. The result section of the paper was really short which, would have made it easier to understand the relevance of the data. A weakness of this test would be consistency. Every classroom is different. Different teachers, directors, children, and families.

If you were to mention algebra to me at this exact moment I would most definitely cringe at the words. Algebra has always been my most difficult subject since I was in the eighth grade, which is why I absolutely despise it. Before my eighth grade year I did exceptionally well in math, it was by far my favorite subject because I loved money and solving multiplication problems. My love for math lead to me being in advanced math class which is why I took algebra in the eighth grade versus the ninth grade. When I began algebra my love for math was gone.

My schedule had a plethora of advanced courses and like 9th, and 10th grade I felt it would fly by. But for the first time ever, I felt the feeling that many of my peers had told me they felt before. For the first time, I did not understand what the teacher was teaching. Going after school, paying attention, taking notes, just was not enough. I felt like the subject of mathematics was doing me wrong, like it was attacking me.

In his hand is a flamethrower at this time. Beatty questions Montag about the books he had kept. Montag doesn 't answer and Beatty hits him, it knocks the radio from his ear, picking it up Beatty says he will have to trace it and, "drop in on your friend". Montag feels threatened and angry with Beatty. Montag loses it and switches the safety snap on the flamethrower and kills Beatty.

Being a part of advanced placement classes in middle school, I expected loads of difficult work to come my way once I entered Fenway High School. These advanced classes prepared me well to succeed in high school. Although I took these higher classes, I was never good at math. Math was my worst subject because I did not like dealing with numbers. I am a history and science type of student, I prefer learning these subjects rather than math.

The SAT test consist of unrealistic reading questions and complex math problems. The short essays are uninteresting and most of the time vague. Each section in the test has a time limit, therefore a student has limited time to comprehend what they read and answer the questions that follow. As a student one can only imagine spending all four years in high school trying to get a good GPA and then having to take the SAT as a junior or senior. It becomes frustrating when one has to wait two months for the results, just to receive average scores that are not good enough to get into a college of choice.
